Volunteering

Our Volunteering Policy allows each employee an extra paid day off every year (in addition to their holiday allowance) to be used to volunteer for a good cause in the local community.

 

We encourage our employees to take these days together as team in order to work towards a larger goal – this way the policy benefits not only the local community, but has a positive engagement benefit too.

 

This has particularly benefited our relationship with Marbury Park in recent times, with groups of colleagues giving up their time to help take care of overgrown forest, take down fences, tidy up the park, etc.

 

Other ways that employees have helped our community using their volunteering day include: painting walls for a special school, renovating a youth club, building an accessible garden for a disabled child, and helping out at the local cricket club.
